"What a pity," replied the young man, "is there anything I can do for you?"
"Yes," she said, "as I’m leaving, can you say ’Good bye, mother’? It would make me feel so much better."
"Sure," answered the young man. So, when the old woman was leaving, he called out, "Goodbye, mother !"
As he stepped up to the check-out counter(收銀臺), he saw that his total was $127. 50. "How can that be?" he asked, "I only buy a few things!"
